Claims post is outdated anachronism
Manx nationalist party Mec Vannin says the Isle of Man should rid itself of the Lieutenant Governor once and for all.
It’s as the hunt begins for a replacement for the current incumbent Adam Wood, who’ll step down next year.

It's closed for essential repair worksÂ
Protecting farmers from impact of climate change 'a no brainer'
